The Indiana Hoosiers come into this game having posted a 3-0 record. Their wins over Penn St. and Michigan look good on paper but neither of those teams has shown much this season in hindsight. They go on the road to face an underperforming Michigan State team. The offense is led by quarterback Michael Penix Jr. Their rushing attack is averaging just 89.3 yards a game this season. Indiana will be facing a defense that has been torched for 37 points a game. Their defense leads the conference and ranks third in the country in turnover margin. The Spartans rank dead last in turnover margin.

The Spartans have been a tale of two teams. When they hold onto the ball they win(Michigan) and when they turn the ball over they lose badly(Rutgers and Iowa). They will have to hold onto the ball better as Indiana's defense leads the conference in takeaways. notorious for takeaways. Rocky Lombardi threw three interceptions and no touchdowns against Iowa and cant have a repeat performance this week. Michigan State has just four sacks over the course of three games.

This could be a bit of a letdown game for the Hoosiers. They are coming off a win over Michigan and have Ohio State next week. Michigan State's turnovers have been a problem all year and have put them behind the eightball early. If the Spartans can hold on to the ball as they did with Michigan they should be able t keep this one close.

Play on Michigan State plus the points.
